  1. good site for windows updates ... all legit updates .. http://www.softwarepatch.com/windows/index.html
  2. there's 2 sections for Resolution, the Video Source, which controls the overall resolution, and then depending on which source you set it to, a recording quality for each camera individually.

    Cameras going dark

    OEMs, you're lucky if you get a year from some of them ..
  4. Geo GV250-2 Channel ... then use something like dyndns.org for a free DDNS name.
  5. in the camera set up, goto System Setup, Camera, RECORD CONTROL, Change the quality with the little green arrow, from default 320x240 to ... 720x480 Do it for each camera, or click the Green arrow under the RECORD CONTROL title, and that will make all cameras have the same RECORD CONTROL settings as set for that camera.

    Any geovision 720x576 or 640x480 with audio

    maybe its just the PAL versions ? What is the screen size you are using, windows settings, etc ... I tried both 720 non and de interlace and they were the same, with 720 de interlace having no lines in the image when cars or people move in front of it.

    Any geovision 720x576 or 640x480 with audio

    use the DSP out to a CCTV monitor, you will be impressed. What cameras are you using? With high res cameras there is a difference between 640 and 720 in the recording quality, with 720 being crisper. What version software are you using?

    IR Illuminator "Golden State Instrument"

    well you dont want a bright or powerful IR as it will just produce too much glare, and the location of the IR will make the difference also, it is going to be alot of work, so whoever is doing the install has their hands full - LPR and cheap dont go together ..

    Any geovision 720x576 or 640x480 with audio

    The Deinterlace is good quality on this side, what hardware are you using, monitor, etc? All the Geo settings are the same across the boards as far as resolution.

    wireless options

    also check out: These guys are very very helpful, also check their forum: Trango http://www.trangobroadband.com/ I'd also say check VideoComm but they take 2 months to get back to yah! Either way, COP wireless gear doesnt come close, i used that originally 5 years or so ago, and threw it all in the garbage after it's 1000' claim on only 150' line of sight didnt work properly, or did so with so much interference ...

    What makes camera "true" day/night?

    The camera itself does make the difference, regardless of whether it uses an Exview CCD or not. Exview is certainly very good in low light, perhaps the best IMO, but IR is a different thing. Im not a CCD manufacturer so cant say for sure. Let me point you in the direction though .. Here is something from Extreme on their LXR CCD: http://www.extremecctv.com/products/uploads/PDF2/LXR800-Series_TS_060101.pdf "LXR is short for the ELIXIR sensor … or Enhanced Light Integrity for Extended Infra-Red spectral response. This new generation CCD marks a quantum advance in photopic response, IR response and dynamic range. The benefits are clear: no blooming, no streaking, no smearing. The applications are extremely interesting: night vision, vehicle monitoring, high speed surveillance, license plate reading." "These 1/2â€

    UF500 - 730nm filter for sale or swap

    Are you sure you want a 30 degree? What is the width of the camera lens, and FOV?
  20. what are the distance specs for the camera .. the length and width of the camera view, what is in the view itself, and how far would you like to illuminate? Best bet would be to buy a new lens kit, which comes with the beam and the filter. But which one depends on the questions above .. and if you have a picture, even better. Rory
